This course is designed for students committed to moving their writing to the next level. In this class we will read extensively from New Yorker, Slate, Vanity Fair, The New York Times Sunday Magazine and other mainstream publications as we study the impact and the techniques of the best magazine writing in America today. Students will produce their own magazine-length work on topics of their own choosing. These pieces will be distinguished by extensive reporting and research coupled with compelling and original prose.
